DarJ Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 8 minutes ago, BrightLad5 said: Talking of scouting, the one thing that did cause me some issues was the loading screen or lag on the scout page. Where all my scouts were listed and also when addig individual scouts their assignments. It seemingly froze for 5-10 seconds on each screen, when normally every other screen loads instantly. Maybe it’s cause Milan have 19 scouts? I don’t know. But yeah, that was a tad annoying. I had this too. I thought it was because I was transfering my graphics from the old FM to the new one in the background Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piperita Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Can I send some virtual hugs to devs handling the performance? Last year the improvement in general game speed and now the setup just flies by. It might have resulted in me spending roughly two-and-a-half hours just starting a new save again and again, but that's life, I guess. I can't wait to play the game for real, tomorrow! Outside of restarting and setting some views I hardly managed anything today. Two beta saves are set up and I'm hoping this good first impression continues! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthiele Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 its great. I noticed when trying to buy a player they wanted time to get a replacement. I agreed and then they asked if he could be loaned back to them. I agreed. the deal went throught then at the last minute it was cancelled as they couldnt get a replacement but he was meant to be immediately loaned back so no need for a replacement?

dannyrefc Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) without reading anything after 6 hours of playing, pretty impressive beta , compared to previous! enjoying the polished UI , the match engine / animations seem smooth and it is nice to see some variety in the animations too (bit jittery in parts , not sure if my graphics or not but rated max stars). im loving the new wide centre back role ! couple of bugs here and there on the UI , and other than the fact i cannot confirm my squad for pl and therefore continue past the 30th of july. i am enjoying it! alot better than i expected. (i have raised this bug in the relevant sub forum). thanks for the hard work as ever SI ! , 8/10 beta so far , lots of potential for a great game this year Edited October 22, 2021 by dannyrefc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kcinnay Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 The interface is suffering a bit from a lag, but that aside: great game it seems to be. Really happy that WB's in the DM-strata now actually defend higher up the pitch than a WB in the CD-strata. Until FM 21, it didn't matter that much defensively whether you played 5-3-2 flat or 5-3-2 WB (3-2-3-2 with two higher WB's). Now they can join the high/medium press and eventually (as a last resort) track back to become a back five. Like most of the back 3/back 5 teams defend in real life. (Chelsea, for example.) Looking forward to exploring the ME further. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFLFM Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Hello, I have a question, when you scout with your data analysist a player from a foreign league (that you obviously loaded) is it finally possible to see the same data graph compared to the other players of his league (example see the xg of the forward you want compared to the rest of his league) that you can have in data hub for your own players ? I always find that they don’t use enough all the stats they put ingame when we scout a player, except the pros and cons in the report which are not representative enough for me, especially if you wanna do a « moneyball » recruitment. Thanks in advance ! Edited October 22, 2021 by NFLFM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmurfDude Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 The match engine is beautiful. The new animation system has taken it up a few levels. No longer does it look clunky and clumsy, but smooth and rather realistic I must say. I've not noticed any obvious annoyances or bugs with the ME either, such as players shooting from impossible angles, or missing a millions n one vs ones. It all feels natural. As someone who has been around here for the past 20 years, I can't tell you how good it feels to be at this point. FM has always been the best option by a mile, but the transition to 3D and the ME in numerous versions since was at times less than satisfying. We've finally reached a place where the simulated football is believable and you can get fully immersed in the experience. Cracking job. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahuelzn Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I'm really annoyed at the removal of the potential ability from the player's profile. Yes. You should remove it from all the game, not only in that section! It's easy already to spam wonderkids into your team already. Keep the potential ability as a hidden variable and let us discover through time and maybe some trainer reports the potential of our players. (Besides that, I'm really enjoying what Im seeing so far in FM22, but didn't had that much time to play. The new animations are really great, by the way).

Played one friendly with a lower-league English club. The game engine feels better, more fluid, new moves, and I didn't see any of the crazy offsides or broken set pieces yet. Data Hub is new. But only works after 3 league matches. Curious to see. The rest: - nice interface, more elegant, modern. - dark skin is not nice. too dark. Why not more skin options?! - need to recreate all my FM21 settings (formations, tables, set pieces, etc.) - bummer - need to reinstall all facepacks and logopacks and remove name restrictions - bummer Press conference - same experience. maybe a few answer options were rewritten. Squad, Dynamics, Tactics - all the same Scouting center - same. a new option/filter by letter rating Data hub?! new to me. need to explore Training, Medical Center - same Schedule, Competion - same Scouting, Contracts - look the same Recruitment Meetings - better! Recos are better visuals Team screen - same Pep Talk - same, maybe a few rewritten options Tactics - same, didn't find anything different Dressing Room midgame pep talk - same, more/different options All in all, FM22 is minor database upgrade with a few improvements. It's more of the same, a bit better. Don't expect anything "revolutionary". need to recreate all my FM21 settings (formations, tables, set pieces, etc.) - bummer - Different game of course you need to set up formations, set peices etc - need to reinstall all facepacks and logopacks and remove name restrictions - bummer - Same again, different game, different game folder / directory. It really is just a copy and paste job. Can't hold anything against SI for this dude. Press conference - same experience. maybe a few answer options were rewritten. - Agree, press conferee answers had been the same for years up until 21, but I doubt they'll change amny from 21 to 22. All in all, FM22 is minor database upgrade with a few improvements. It's more of the same, a bit better.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? I have audio in the matches. Test audio doesn't work however for me either in preferences. I turn it off first thing as the audio is awful I think. Just done my first transfer deadline day and I have to say wow what a difference that has made. They actually made the day a part of the game and something I'd actually take part in every season rather than declining or rather regretting my decision not to decline as in prior FMs. ME looks amazing this year although we only seem to score from set pieces. The AI however does seem to get a reasonable variety of goals against me. Haven't been playing a massively intense tactic so can't comment on the stamina changes etc. The changes to transfer values etc is confusing the hell out of me, it's a small change but seems to be incredibly inconsistent. Player valued at 750k to 2 million but then his value is also listed as 3.5 million. AI offers 70k! Erm okay... Data Hub is great but kind of information overload, I'm an old fashioned go out and kick it kinda manager but I love a graph even if I have no idea what to do with that info.
